Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

SillyGayBoy I have watched many jail shows and documentaries and I am walking away from this thinking this might actually be the best.It shows various viewpoints of people who when they were young committed a murder. Some seem to feel a lot of guilt, some don't seem to. It shows the way they think about it, what they tried to do, how they tried to get away with it.It raises questions about whether or not young people really understand consequences to their actions and if life without parole is actually right for them.It also might just make people upset and mad. It depends what you take away from this. But to me it is an interesting psychological study.

almedina29 The first story was disturbing. Those two young men killed a girl they went to school with and were friends with! At least one of them has admitted what he did and is dealing with it. The other is very obviously lying and guilty and he is still trying to say he didn't do it? The girl was stabbed over 90 times! These boys need to stay behind bars...no one should be trying to help them get out. They still get to talk to their family and loved ones...the girl they murdered is gone forever. ....the cases where the children were brutally abused are the only ones that deserve any kind of consideration. I have known people who lived through the same kind of abuse and they pretty much always have thoughts of killing their abusers to end the constant pain. They reached out for help and no one helped them, so they did what they thought they had to do to end the horrible abuse. The parents in the second story were, by no means, innocent victims.

jason_leo At the start of the movie it says stuff about kids not being fully responsible it then goes on to the stories. The first story touches briefly on the murder and shows both killers blaming each other but that's it. When you further look into it they stabbed her 29 times 9 of which were fatal.If someone gets life without parole its usually for a good reason these guys thrill killed a beautiful girl for fun and infamy i found it disgusting to watch one of them sit there while his parents say he is such a great kind kid. nice parents. By the end of the movie you are left wondering why the director made the movie as it shows both sides of the fence but leaves out the point. people would say maybe that's for the viewer to decide but judging by the two psychos in the first story its way too easy

haphazard72 I'm really not sure how to review this one.It's hard- I'm not sure what the intent of the movie was. It certainly gave some insight into the history of many notable cases and gave some somewhat chilling insight into those locked up for their wrong doings. Did it make me think that mandatory life sentences should be scrapped?No! If anything, it makes me glad it's in place.This was hard to watch in that some of the detail was graphic- and I'm sure there's always two sides to every story, but in this instance they've been found guilty of their crimes. It's also hard to watch one inmate in particular as he sits there with his parents and they talk about how he is innocent and was led astray by the other offender. Really? The video that they both made pre and post the murder seemed pretty clear cut to me!It's definitely a thought provoking documentary. But is chilling at the same time. I wonder what the victims family think of it?
